Abstract

This article proposes an analysis of the Law no. 11340, August 7th, 2006, known as “Maria da Penha” law. The study is based on the theoretical guidelines of French Semiotics, mainly on the earlier studies conducted by Algirdas Julien Greimas and the recent developments in Jacques Fontanille, Claude Zilberberg and Eric Landowski’s researches, concerning the forms of life. In this regard, we verify whether the aforesaid law constitutes a new way of life of the Brazilian woman.
